A lot of analysts from early 2022 were saying that it’ll take until spring/summer 2024 for dealer lots to be close to full again like things were pre-pandemic. So far that seems to track. I see most lots at roughly 50% capacity when combining both premium and non-premium dealerships.
Just so you know, you can't transfer orders unless you have a very close relationship with your dealer and they don't mind bending the rules for you. Technically your order only requires them to sell the Bronco to you. Worst case scenario, you may have to buy and then sell your Bronco to your...
